West Bromwich Albion have given a trial to Yasin Ben El-Mhanni, a 20-year-old wide attacker, whose outrageous tricks have seen him used by Nike in adverts alongside Neymar.

El-Mhanni, who is playing on a non-contract basis for non-league Lewes, will work at West Brom until Monday, when he could feature for the club’s under-21 team against Arsenal.

His form for Lewes, where he has been since last October, has drawn the attention of scouts and several clubs in the Championship are monitoring him, including Queens Park Rangers, Reading, Brighton & Hove Albion and Birmingham City. He has previously had trials at Watford and Bournemouth.
